Disney has truly been on a roll by expanding their horizons - Moana, Raya, Luca, Soul and Coco have explored different cultures and also managed to be excellent films.

I’ve seen comparisons run the gamut of themes like transsexual transition, family trauma, autism, and so on. And as varied as these topics are, I completely see the comparisons. I think another good element of a movie is the ability to …
